Steve C.

But he’s 49! ;-p
meanwhile delagdo is 36? and batting 2.40?
yeah yeah he has more homers and more rbis.. but think about it. NOT bad for an OLD guy. you have to give him that much credit.
Now if delgado can give us more hitting like he did last night ten we are good.

Fellow Mets fans living in – or visiting – San Diego:
House of Blues, at 1055 5th Ave. in the Gaslamp Quarter is tonight’s unofficial pre-game meal/drinks spot. We’ll be there starting at 5:15 p.m. Join us!

Steve C. What is your endless rag about Delgado. Please wait until Aug when his numbers might suck again. By the way 2.40 is an impossible bating average. It can’t be higher than 1.000
As for the Braves getting Franco…. GOOD… Its nice to see the opposition weaken itself. But we may be doing the same if we call up a recently released ex Met in Marlon Anderson. He’s probably finished as well.

Still can’t believe Franco had the gall to even think about asking the Mets to release him b/c he was upset over his lack of playing time. Way to be a team player Julio, good riddance.

It’s going to be nice come September when we put the final nail in the coffin that is the Braves season. I can see it now, Mets completing a 3 game sweep of the Braves with Franco striking out on an 96 MPH fastball from Wagner.

Many thanks for writing this wonderful blogposting. I genuinely much like the model which you use to write about points. It had been extremely informative and I need to many thanks you for thaking the time to compose about it. Many persons would clarify this stuff so much more complicated, but along with your statements I really realize now anything. I’m sure I’ll verify back again your website and my rss reader will like your stuff as well.
